A new association, with a hundred-year-old root.

On March 30, 2026, eight Portuguese entrepreneurs and executives signed the founding deed. We then gathered at the Schoenstatt Shrine to symbolically consecrate the work to the Thrice Admirable Mother. The Portuguese branch is part of CIEES’s international network, with presence in several Latin American and European countries.
